The windowlessness! And the whiteness of the walls compared to the style of the paintings! And the weird blandness of the food! It’s so wonderfully sinister.

This morning my parents got a letter from a company called Pure Cremation and on the envelope it said β€œStart 2025 with some good news and our free leaflet.”

I always thought the lyrics went β€œjealousy, turning snakes into the sea.” Like Saint Patrick.

My dad has discovered Mr Brightside and has been playing it on an endless loop all day. Understandable.

β€œIf everybody wants you, why isn’t anybody calling” is such a sick burn, I bet Gloria was fuming.

It’s good for productivity! What could be more motivating than Lord Vader watching over you?

Hate it when I come into the office and this one guy’s always looking over my shoulder

Conclave is excellent but it made me realised I haven’t picked out my pope name. I have not prepared myself.

I had a very good system where Nick would just send me good Bluesky posts and I didn’t have to actually have an account! But to be fair there IS something appealing about β€œlike Twitter, but when it was only 2022-ish levels of bad.”

Ok yes β€œhappy” is overstating it.

Honestly I was quite happy not being on social media at all. A better way to live.
